emerald crab

Was wondering if anybody had any idea why our new emerald crab has a whole with black/white coloration in one of its claws? We just bought her and came home and noticed it. She’s in quarantine. Thanks!

We bought this “emerald crab” today and just want to confirm whether or not it is actually an emerald crab because it is not green like most of the pictures online. We were thinking that maybe perhaps because it is juvenile that it hasn’t turned green yet. Also when we got home we realized that...

I have a 100gl tank- 1 red lip blenny, 3 emerald crabs, 3 clown fish, 1 CBS, 6 nassarius snails, and a dozen or so hermit crabs. Saturday- Got my blenny, he looked great. After a few hours of having him it looked like he was swimming up to and laying next to the CBS as if asking the shrimp to...

I have an emerald crab who always seems happy. He has already molted once like two months ago? I haven’t seen him for a few days and today I found him stuck to a rock. On further inspection it was either a molt or he’s dead. I’m not quite sure. I have a ten gallon with two clowns and some frag...

Guess he needed his temperature taken!

I just picked up an emerald crab for my 10g nano and I have so far one toadstool in there. After checking up on him, i noticed he was crawling on my toadstool that was previously opened and now all shrunken up. I also noticed a tiny chunk of my toadstool missing. I am so mad!! I love my little...

Just saw my Emerald crabs mate and release, what looked like eggs into the water column. Don't mind the cheesy music

I did some tank maintenance yesterday and temporarily got rid of my frag rack, moving my coral frags on to the rocks in the mean time. This morning I woke up and noticed the frogspawn had not opened (not surprised or worried, it probably doesn't like its new spot), however I did notice what...

So I got home yesterday and noticed a little something extra growing on my emerald crab. Is it aiptasia? Is this normal? Have yall seen this? What should I do? Blake Hamilton

I love the way that Emerald crabs look and I think they are pretty fascinating to watch. I’ve also read they are great for keeping algae in check. I just added two small ones into my 20 gallon cube tank and one of them IMMEDIATELY went to my blasto frag and started cleaning the base. In a ten...

*NEW* welcome to Malakai's Reef! i am the Father to this tank as it was sort of a gift to myself for a change of pace and a learning tool for my newborn child! starting this with him we have come to reef2reef many times for question tips and how too's and finally have one of our own! 12/22/2019...

I am having an issue with some of my Zoa frags being flat out devoured by something in my tanI while others go unmolested. The dastardly deed happens over the course of a 24 hour period and the only critter I ever see near them is a typical small CUC hermit or snail. Could my PB tang or...

Ok so in my nano I have a pump pumping water into a refgium and than it over flows back into the tank. The pump failed and the refugium had a salinity of 1.036 by the time I noticed. I keep a zebra hermit in it to both survived and don’t seem stressed. The crab is there to help prevent algae...

I know plenty of you have them with no problems. I wasn't so lucky. I had one that loved to eat my SPS. I saw it going to town on a staghorn SPS frag the other night. I made a trap to try and catch it. Jar with small opening, baited with Mysis in a mesh pouch. The emerald could care less...
